2009 NFL Draft Countdown

Yes Pitsburgh wanting to release him, they like the young guys they have. Foote stated in articles last week he would like to play here (for the right price even 0-16 can look good) But hey he would be a nice adition regardless!!

Yes, he should be a welcome addition to the Lions team.
btw, he's not an old guy, he's in his prime, only 28

That said, Why would they let Foote go, he's come into his own the past year or so and done so very well.

I see they are going with Timmons and Foote consequently gets less playing time, make sense, but seemed odd anyways.

Like I said earlier, this is a cap saving move. There is no other reason to justify this.

Well hopefully now the Foote is a free agent, he comes to the lions. Hopefully his contract demands are not sky high. He would be a great aditions to the lions D

Lions have met with him .....
Lets see if he really wants to play for the Lions (I hope so) or if he's using them to get a better offer elsewhere.
